COMING INTO THE UNION.
Citizens OF the County Form Associ-
alton No, %.

Northeast Washington citizens seem to
glory in holding meetings during snow
storms, and last night was no exception to
the rule. A number of property owners,
living on the Bladensburg, Bunker Hill,
an Benning's roads sat on the chairs, bar
rels, and boxes IN George N. Hollands
northeast, and formed an association. Mr..
Holland took time by the forelock, and
the citizens, on reaching the store, found
seats arranged for them around big blaz-
ing fire in a large sized base-burner. 1t was a
settled fact that those present were not
accustomed to parliamentary usages or
going to meeting on time. Many came q
distance Of two miles to hear what was
done. Mr.. William j. Frizzle, president Of
the temporary organization, called the
meeting to order, and stated that the call
was for the purpose of organizing Citizens
Association, No. 0, and selecting commit
tee OF eight citizens TO form q part Of the
central committee. On account OF the few
residents present, 1t was decided to post
pone this matter until Tuesday next. Mr.
w. II. Hoover revived the permanent Or
ganiZation matter, and made q motion that
the association form and appoint commit
tee of eight to the central committee.
Mr.. Smith, who had with him the pro-
ceedings Of the previous meeting, got the
floor and read the same. He also presented
two papers, one signed by nearly all the
people on the Blagdensburg road, asking
tba< the road be SO improved as to be IS
inches high In the center; by this means the
water would have a good pitch. He also
presented an unsigned petition with the
same object in view for the improvement of
the Bennings road.
a lengthy discussion followed on the pre-
sentation Of the paper. 1t was proposed to
unite the papers In one and present them to
the commissioners.
1t was finally decided to get additional
signatures to the petitions and r 'esent them
to the commissioners with the nderstand-
ing that the plan of the citizens be insisted
on, as being the most sensible and prac.
ticable and In every way suited to their
wants.

ABOUT ADVERTISING.

There is nothing SO little under
stood as the value of an advertisement.
The value is almost invariably in pro-
portion to the circulation given it.
The object of the advertiser is to make
his business known as extensively as
possible among those whose patronage
he solicits. If one paper makes that
business known to five hundred read
ers, and another to five thousand, the
latter is worth to the advertiser Just
ten times as much as the former and
get very large majority of advertis-
ers don't know one difference, and i'm
agine they save money by getting the
cheapest advertising. There is another
matter just as little understood; we
mean the cost of the advertisement to
the publisher. That cost is nearly in
proportion to the circulation. This
cost consists in composition, in press
work, in paper, in mailing, IN wear
and tear OF type, press, &c. The first
item is much the smallest, for an ad-
vertisement to continue any length of
time, and the cost of this is just the
same, no matter what the circulation.
But all the other items, constituting,
generally, mere than nine-tenths of
the whole cost, increase fast in pro-
portion to the circulation. That is,
one paper having ten times the circu-
lation of another has to pay about ten
times as much for press work, paper,
work of mailing, and wear and tear of
material, and were the two papers to
charge the same for the same adver-
tisement, the more largely circulated
paper would lose money by the opera
ton, while the other would make large
profit. The SENTINEL's charges are
in proportion to its circulation.

tions they will undertake to punish q
man for going to a circus. It is about
time the Democratic party, if it ex-
poets to live, was going back to first
principles.
On another occasion the same pap
@ says,
The late lottery law Is none the bet
ter by being can exact copy Of the
New York law" as some of our con.
temporaries seem to think. here are
already too many exact copies of 9TH
er peoples foolishness that are not
suited to our own people. Some pa
pers are rejoicing over this death blow,
as they consider it, to this Louisiana
fraud while their columns are filled
with other and greater frauds and
humbugs.
During the past week certain por-
tions of North Carolina have been
flooded with specimen. copies" of
Northern publications which contain
ed flaming lottery advertisements.
Thus is apparent the injustice of al
lowing newspapers of other States to
send thousands and thousands of cop.
les with lottery advertisements into
North Carolina free of tax or restrict
ion, while our own newspapers are
prohibited from publishing such mat
ter. In this connection the Hickory
Press forcibly remarks:
IF the discrimination were IN favor
of our own citizens, it would be de-
clared unconstitutional. The Consti-
tuition of the United States would
protect the citizens of other States
from such discrimination. But that
instrument will hardly protect North
Carolinians against the legislation of
their own State, the presumption be-
ing that no State would be guilty of
the folly of taxing its own citizens for
doing what citizens of other States may
do without being taxed.
Verify the author OF this paternal
measure is cross between diseased
moralist and 6x9 politician.
